First off... the practice of infant baptism as a Christian principle can be likened in the OT where infant males were circumcised. Baptism with water and circumcision are outward sings of joining into the outward kingdom of God, only. Such is a profession necessary to join a congrgation and has no eternal benefit. This is easy enough to look up in your Bible. Next

Next, baptism and circumcision does not and can not produce salvation since this would be salvation via created things wielded by created beings. So too, man can not save himself by "accepting Jesus as his Lord and Savior." This presupposes man has a faith which he places in Christ. Not true at all... unredeemed man is " faithless,"Mt17:17. Faith is a work, 1Thes.1:3 and faith is law, Ro.3:27,28. Trusting in Christ is a work, Lam.3:26. No one is saved by works of the law, Gal.2:16. The word "Law" in the Bible should never be capitalized because there are no capital letters in the Holy Scripture. " Law " in the Bible is synonymous with " word," and "witness," Isa.8:20, and "Word" is one of the many Names of Jesus Christ, Jn.1:1, The Everlasting Father, Isa.9:6. You are saying Christ paid the wages of sin for everyone... so for that to be true, every one is redeemed lest you preach Jesus Christ is a failed Savior. If Christ died for every one then every one is saved. How is it every one is Not filled with the Holy Spirit since all true believers are? Unbelief is sin, Jn.16:8-11... and since unbelief is sin Christ paid for that sin by His death, too. Sadly

Sadly enough, Christianity of today largely preaches a failed Savior in Jesus Christ whose dying is only half done... man makes up for the other half by saving himself through the work of faith, 1 Thes.1:3, the law of faith,Ro Ro.3:27,28 and by his good work of trust. Besides that, how does the mentally ill " make a decision for Christ" when they don't even know their own name ? Salvation is denied every insane person, every Alzheimers sufferer, every Autism sufferer, every Dementia sufferer and the like because these folks have very limited awareness of reality. Fundamentalist gospels of salvation by the will of man, Jn.1;13, deny these people remission of sins and life eternal. Explain to God on Judgement Day why you preached a failed Savior while denying salvation to all those not as intelligent as you.
